    Eh, mystics like to pass them off as crazy fortune telling tools from eastern west egypto-japan-istan, so it’s reasonable to believe that’s where they’re from. The reality is that they’re just Italian playing cards.

      Well, now I know until I forget.

      Me and my sister liked all that mystic\occult stuff when we were kids, for the fun of it, which now feels a bit dangerous since many people on the Web posting about that were absolutely serious.

      One could find long texts about identifying vampires around you sucking energy through proximity and all that stuff.

      I’d say this worked as a vaccine - too often I meet people discreetly or openly believing in such things, and usually their interests in their childhood were more mundane.
